OMG, people just dont understand things, power doesnt always win races, especially if you dont make much more power than the car you are racing yet spin like you have 1700 hp on street tires.
Ever been to the track and seen people with certain setups not run the numbers? Happens every day.

ok guys not to steal the thread, but last night my camaro blew the doors off a stage 2 s.r.t.4....... 3 times. now its not a stage 3 but it was like he had no chance. and im not running a supercharger or nos.
nice win by the camaro though, and it did look like there may have been something wrong with that s.r.t.4.

When it comes to FWD, you dont always move forward as fast as your dyno sheet will let you, especially on street tires. If you cant understand that you probably havent raced much or been around cars much.
I know stock LS1's that run the same times as header/bolton LS1's, if you dont maximize what you have, you lose. Thats why we race cars and not dynos.

That ????? wasn't a stage 3 sorry.
This has nothing to do with dyno sheets. This has to do with the car accelerating like a stock ?????. Even after he got traction the car didn't pull.

Hell no he didnt pull, he was still spinnin in second at least and he didnt have a prayer with the GT regardless, the SS was already so far out there wasnt **** he could do.
He said he estimated the car around 350 whp as it sat, that aint enough to turn into a Supra once it starts moving
